O2B Kids Announces Brand New Supercenter Building

Press release from O2B Kids

O2B Kids, the leader in the early childhood education and child care industry, is opening the doors to a brand-new, state-of-the-art building to house the company’s flagship Supercenter location. This new building will be the home of the largest and longest-standing location for O2B Kids and has been designed to better provide excellent education and care to Gainesville families and children. O2B Kids is a rapidly growing company focused on providing high-quality care and early education to children from infancy through school ages; it has 24 locations across Florida and Georgia, with more on the way.

The new building is at Markets West on Tower Road, across from Oak Hall, and it will be open to the public from 5:00-6:00 p.m. on October 14.

O2B Kids’ new location was designed to become the newest and most impressive addition to the company’s already wide array of offerings. The new building will boast an expansive 27,000 square feet total area for children, teachers, and families to utilize. Designated areas for specific types of play will include a full indoor Play Village, Rock Climbing Room, Big Toy Climbing Maze, a kids-only Fitness Gym, Technology Lab, state of the art Dance Studio, Gymnastics and Tumble Studio, Theater and Stage, and a Learning Library stocked with educational and enjoyable books. In addition to these indoor facilities, the new Supercenter will also have a large outdoor turf playground for school-aged children, as well as an interior courtyard with a turf play area designated for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. For parents and families, a cafe is also included in the floor plans, with drinks and food items for sale.

This new Supercenter location provides a functional space and superior equipment to offer additional enrichment classes to children through their Membership program. In addition to their proprietary school curriculum, Funnydaffer, the Supercenter location will be offering Members a variety of class options like dance, gymnastics, theater, science, yoga, art, and many more to help families with a one-stop, convenient approach to their child’s extracurricular activities.

This new construction creates a vacancy in the iconic building that has housed O2B Kids’ flagship location for the past 23 years. While departure from the iconic building is bittersweet, it is comforting to know that the location will continue to be used in a way that contributes to the local community with its new tenant, North Florida Regional Medical Center.

Over its 23 years of operation, O2B Kids has not only made a positive impact on the lives of children and their families throughout Florida, but its 24 locations (and counting) have created many exciting career opportunities for teachers and early education professionals. With a focus on creating a fun and enjoyable working environment for teachers and staff, O2B Kids has helped provide growth and experience to individuals who are passionate about creating a better future for children. As a leader in the early-education industry and a passionate educator for both teachers and children, O2B Kids is proud to expand and grow with even more future locations planned.
